I know that E.T.H. passed away about a year ago this week, and I didn't see a thread honoring our late friend on here. I just wanted to take a moment and remember a great guy; one who always had a fantastic sense of humor, offered up good advice, and was a wonderful part of AR15.COM.

it’s best to avoid doing anything that’s outside the law, unless honor and decency demand it. In today’s world, an honorable man may find himself occasionally operating outside of the law. If this happens, don’t get caught. -Thuban

Man I am sad, i am very happy to say that i went to his memorial shoot and camped with Ilikelegs and Woodbucher and invisiblesoul etc.........I live about an hour from the Hunfarm and wish i could offer up a solution but, I can't.R.I.PWayne thanks, for the short time i knew you and Thanks for the trip.Jim

There were a few posts going for a get together in his honor but it hasn't materialized.

Another post discussed to trying to find another place we could continue this great tradition that Wayne fostered and loved very much. Stay tuned to the Texas HT forum.

Wayne is a great friend and was there for me when my twin sister passed awayjust three short months before our beloved friend did also. I had the honor of beinga pole bearer at his service and have been to Crowell a few times to visit his place or resting.

We all miss him very much and I feel in my heart he is will always be with us.

And when I vest my flashing sword and my hand takes hold in judgment I will take vengeance upon mine enemies And I will repay those who hate me O Lord, raise me to Thy right hand and count me among Thy saints.

I never had the chance to meet him, but he sounds like a helluva guy. He's probably smiling down on everyone right now.

That's why you lost the Civil War. Sherman marched across the south looking for pop, and everywhere he stopped you guys angered him by playing stupid. He didn't quit looking until he got to the Atlantic Ocean. All your fault. - swingset

For those that don't know me that well, I had been asked to be one of the staff at Gunstock #1 (NOT to be confused with the Black Rifle Convention), but I had been out of work for a long time, and I got the offer on Tuesday, asking me to be in Wednesday, and I had been supposed to be down in Texas on Thursday. Short notice, but I had to beg off.

The job sucked, did not pay well, and I wound up regretting being associated with them.

Talk about regretting a decision, when you had thought it was the right thing to do.

Best friend Texas and the DFW crew ever had.Never could be replaced.RIP Wayne.

Oh, and Fuck you, ARock, for the things you said about him after he died. You, his supposed fucking friend.

+1 I never met Wayne but did chat with him several times in ARFCOM IRC chat. He seemed a nice and honorable man and he is missed by many.

On a related note, we have a wonderful troll in chat who decided that mocking ETH, ala AROCK style, was appropriate. This was him earlier tonight:

75.37.39.Oi72:<Eric_The_Dead_Hun> erics dead and rotting in the fucking grave, get over it<Eric_The_Dead_Hun> !!!!!!!!!<Eric_The_Dead_Hun> Heil Hitler!!!!!!

Some people have no fucking shame.

well, that cretin's ip is now banned from chat.
